Frequently Asked Questions About General Dentistry
We recommend visiting every six months for a routine cleaning and exam. This helps us catch any issues early and keep your smile in great shape. If you have specific concerns, we may suggest more frequent visits.
During your exam, Dr. Jankowski or Dr. Kahn will check your teeth, gums, tongue, and the inside of your mouth for any signs of problems. We'll also review your x-rays and discuss anything we find with you in detail.
Yes. We use digital x-rays, which produce significantly less radiation than traditional film x-rays. They're a critical tool for detecting issues like cavities between teeth, bone loss, and infections that aren't visible during a visual exam.
We use tooth-colored composite fillings that blend naturally with your teeth. They're durable, safe, and look great.
That's okay. No judgment here. A lot of our patients come back after years away, and we're always glad to see them. We'll start with a thorough exam and cleaning, and work with you at your own pace.
We bill most PPO and dental insurance plans as a courtesy. Our team will verify your benefits before your appointment and handle the paperwork so you can focus on your care. Call us at (616) 245-9830 with any questions about your coverage.
No insurance? No problem. Our in-house Eastgate Membership Plan is designed for patients who pay out of pocket. It covers your preventive care at a flat annual rate and includes discounts on additional treatment.
